After too much tests to find the corect turns, I made the final test.
I started to rotate the branch with none gold coin in sight, and there was no signal from the PD.
Then I put a gold coin in 10 m distance and I noticed that after 3-4 minutes the PD started to give signal. Then I took the coin away, and after 1 minute the PD stoped to give signal.Then I placed the coin in the same distance but in 90 degrees angle from the first place. The same result, after 3-4 minutes the PD started to give signal from the new position.
Then I put another coin in the starting position and the PD gave signal to both positions.
During the test the controls and the motor turns , were steady.
I also noticed that with the coins on the ground for enough time, and the PD turned of, when I turned it on, it gave signal again after 3-4 minutes.

Hi DRAKOS, Can you post photo from this ''The branch was rotating by a12V DC motor with controled turns.'' into forum.

Best wish.
